AFC Leopards leapfrogged Ulinzi Stars into the eighth place on the SportPesa Premier League table standings courtesy of yesterday's 2-0 walkover win against Nzoia Sugar at Bukhungu Stadium.

This happened before Kakamega Homeboyz's nine-game unbeaten came to halt after losing 3-1 to Tusker at the same venue as Sofapaka revived their title hopes with a hard-fought 3-2 win over Posta Rangers in Machakos.
